THE EASE BALL GAME,

The game of base ball between the Fly
Always of Galveston and the Young Strik.
ers of Fort Worth, both colored clubs,
was perhaps as interesting q feature as
the fair presented yesterday. Some lit
tie delay was CCcasioned in starting the
game by the hardness of some of the
Fort Worth players, but time was called
ut about 3 O'Clock. There was great
deal of betting INDUCED in, all il
favor OF the visitors, who appeared
to be the best players from the start.
The game was not played to finish Oh
account of the lateness Of the start and
the necessity of preparing for the races
Fort Worth played five innings while Gal
weston only played four, beating the Fort
Worths 4 to 2. There were some excel
lent plays made, notably the double play
of Bess, +. f., and Wins, b., of the Fort
Worths. Greer OF Fort Worth made the
only two base hit. Joe Thompson of
Denison umpired the game. A great
many ladies, both white and colored, wit
messed the game from the grand stand.
This afternoon at 80 O'Clock the IN
finished game will be played cut. Oh
Saturday tits expected the Cuban Giants,
whom the ST. Louis Browns refused to
play, will play the Union club Of New
Orleans, which pretends to be the cham
pion Colored CLUB Of America.

The Bsse Ball Game,

There is one feature of the Colored
State Fair ct Fort Worth which will COM
pare favorably with anything the more
pretentious exhibition ct Dallas can show
IN the same line, to wit: the bad weather.
The opening day was wet and the second
day chilly, and altogether the elements
of the air have apparently conspired to
defeat what the indefatigable managers
have determined shall be successful ex-
hibition. Notwithstanding the unpleasant
ness of the atmosphere yesterday 8 much
larger crowd turned out than was present
on the first day and the managers had
made better arrangements for their en-
ioyment. A large number Of exhibits
that had not been opened before were yes
terdey placed in position. At the pavil-
ion the exhibits were most attractive and
placed in such manner as best to display
their excellencies. The largest number
and the most intere sting exhibits are the
productions of the defJ fingers OF the fe-
male portion Of the'colored race in Texas
and show in en- attractive way the notable
advancement of the race not only in the
purely Industrial pursuits, but in the fine
arts as well. For instance, there could
be found most delicstely worked fancy
cushions, embroidery, luster painting.
crazy quilts, and in fact all manner OF
needle work and such other arts as are
considered in the province Of women
One young Fort Worth lady, Miss Alice
v Townsend, had On exquisitely worked
crazy quilt, with star in the center rep

REVIEW
rHArRA11Ro4D ONCE moRE.

It is settled and a we'll known
fact that nothing would add more to
the growth and progress of Southern
Oregon than railroad from RosebErg
to Coos bay. It would give the grain
growers of this section the benefit of
San Francisco as a a market instead of
Portland and would increase the price
Of every bushel of grain raised by from
five to ten cents. Another point; the
railroad would be paying investment
and would bring in handsome return
On the capital which would construct
it. THE REVIEW is not, at the present
writing, thoroughly conversant with
the present status of the Coos bay rail
road company but is under the impress
sion that the franchise passed into the
hands of the o. Il G. r. r. and from
that corporation to the Southern Pacif-
&c. If so, efforts should be made to
induce this powerful company to con
struct the road. The matter should be
placed before them in the correct light
We are under the opinion that sum
of money should be raised in Douglas
and Coos counties in order to employ
some capable man to gather statistics
regarding the feasibility Of the route
and the resources of tbe county and
have the same presented to the South
ern Pacific company, and if they would
take no action on the matter, then tc
carry the same before Eastern capital
lists. Let us make one more effort to
get this railroad and let us make it
now. What say our Coos bay friends

BROTHER BLAINE.

We cannot refrain from giving the
Oregonians estimate of 'brother
Blaine" in the following:
"The trip of Blaine to the Indian
territory came near costing him his
life, bat it has doubtless convinced
him, as it has all impartial political
observers, that there is wide and
deep under current OF opposition to
his denomination in 1888. Republi-
can opposition to Blaine includes the
st. Louis Globe-Democrat, the Mil
waukcc Sentinel, the Burlington Qa.)
Hawkeye, the Council Bluffs Nonpa-
reil, the Keokuk Gate City, the st.
Paul Pioneer Press, the Philadelphia
Bulletin, the Rochester IN. W Post
Express, and the Philadelphia Eve
ming Telegraph. These republican
journals have come to the conclusion
not to oppose Mr.. Blaine, if nominated,
but to support him, and yet are frank
to say that will be bad politics to NOM
mate Mr. Blaine next year. The
Philadelphia Bulletin says it is no
time to take risks, and that the growth
of this feeling is Sign that the re-
publican party has not lost its head
and that mo worse fate could happen
to the republican organization than
that one of those whirlwinds of per-
sonal enthusiasm should come over
it and force the nomination of Mr..
Blaine.
Garfield had 535, 1000 more votes in
the Northern states in 1880 than the
democratic candidate, while Blaine
had but 100000 more than Cleveland
in 1884, and though Blaine in 1884
had about 100000 more votes than
Garfield in 1880, Cleveland received
430,034 more votes in 1884 than Han
cock in 1880 Cleveland Is morally
certain to be the democratic candi-
date in 1888, and with Blaine as the
republican candidate the mugwump
vote will be solid for the democracy;
but with anybody but Blaine the in
dependents are sure to divide their
vote between the parties, for many
of them are not satisfied with Cleve-
lands in6delity to stern civil service
reform. Of course the same machinery,
the same personal enthusiasm, can Ee
again invoked and organized to renom
mate Blaine that was successful in
setting him up to be knocked down in
1884, but there does not seem to be
any good reason why the republican
party should make the same mistake
next year it made then. Blaine may
be the most unjustly abused man in
America, but the fact remains that
the independents won't vote for him,
and if they won't it is absurd to renom-
mate him.

manager of the Wellington colliery, Archie
Dick, government inspector of mines, William
Gregory, certifcated manager of the Victoria
Coal Company's mine, Frank Little, Of the
Wellington colliery, and A. Prior, member
Of parliament and an experienced miner, re-
port as follows: ''We went down the main
engine plane nearly as far in as No. north
level, where there were supposed TO be twenty
five white men at work We found a lot OF
heavy lumber knocked out, and some small
caves. Just before we got to the No. J level,
we fonnd some very heavy caves and crawled
over the top Of two Of them. There was just
room TO get through. We crawled on top Of
the third cave, and could not get through
We found that, owing to the after-damp our
| lamps could not burn nor the men breathe.
We came back little way and crawled through
a small hole, and, stepping into an air course,

and just behind him

The last legislature made bad mis-
take in not specifying in the proposed
amendment to the constitution for rails
ing the salaries of the state officers, in
not placing the amounts to be paid in
the amendment. The people are not
prepared to vote sn amendment upon
the constitution which shall each ses.
sion Of the legislature authorize that
body to change, by either raising OF
lowering the salaries of the state off.
GERS. Some innocent state official
might incur the dlspleasure of the legis
lature, and that body reduce his salary
to a few dollars. Or, On the othe,
hand, it might be that the state officials
combine and secure high rate of sala
~. The amendment should have
specified the amount to be paid each
officer AS it is, while we recognize
the fact that salaries are entirely toe
low for all our state officers, we think
the amendment should not be passed
There are always plenty Of patriots
ready to serve the people in the vari
GUS positions even at the present low
salary.-Portland World.
